In a recent escalation of cross-border tensions, Lebanon state media reports that an Israeli air strike in Lebanon injured civilians in Adloun on Saturday. Hezbollah and Hamas retaliated by firing rockets and explosive-laden drones at Israeli positions. The IDF confirmed that around 45 rockets were launched from Lebanon at northern Israel within the past hour, with some being intercepted while others impacted open areas and sparked fires. Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the initial barrage of rockets, while Hamas's armed wing took responsibility for a subsequent rocket salvo targeting an Israeli military post in the Upper Galilee. The violence follows an Israeli drone strike that wounded several people, including children, in southern Lebanon earlier in the day. Since October, Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon have killed over 450 people, mostly Hezbollah members but also around 90 civilians and noncombatants. On the Israeli side, 21 soldiers and 13 civilians have been killed.
